The sad thing is this is reinforcing the idea that the sole purpose of University is to achieve maximum income after you graduate. There are many graduates who go on to do work in areas where the earnings are not that much higher than other jobs. They just want to pursue a career in the field they have a passion for.
As you say, a lot won't bother now. If your choice of degree is not going to substantially compensate for the level of debt incurred why would you go?
I think the current system is a happy medium. We have to accept that Students should pay towards their education otherwise too few could attend. However this is already a pretty expensive country to get a degree in comparative to other countries, so making it worse is absurd. Society benefits from an educated work force.
